LITERATURE REVIEW
2.1 Definition
OSA is a disease characterized by periodic collapse of the upper airways
during sleep which results in apnea (cessation of airflow for 10 seconds causing
a 2-4% decrease in oxygen saturation) and hypopnea (a decrease in airflow of at
least 30-50 minutes). % decrease in oxygen saturation) or both with a period
between 10 and 30 seconds, due to repeated total or partial obstruction of the
upper airway during sleep during NREM (Non Rapid Eye Movement) or REM
(Rapid Eye Movement) causing airflow to the lungs becomes obstructed and
causes a sudden reduction in blood oxygen saturation with oxygen levels falling
by as much as 40 percent or more in severe cases.1

2.3 Epidemiology
OSA can occur in any age group, but there is an increasing prevalence
between middle age and old age with the prevalence increasing to at least 1 in 10
people among people over 65 years of age.13
2.5 Pathophysiology
There are three factors that play a role in the pathophysiology of OSA, namely:
The first factor is airway obstruction in the pharyngeal area due to pushing
the tongue and palate back which can cause occlusion of the nasopharynx and
oropharynx, which causes airflow to stop, even though breathing is still ongoing
during sleep. This results in apnea, asphyxia, until a short period of arousal or
awakening from sleep and an improvement in upper airway patency so that
airflow can be resumed. With improvement of asphyxia, the patient goes back to
sleep until the next event occurs again.16
The second factor is the size of the pharyngeal lumen formed by the
pharyngeal dilator muscles (medial pterygoid m., m. tensor veli palatini, m.
genioglosus, m. geniohyoid, and sternohyoid m.) which function to maintain the
balance of pharyngeal pressure in the event of negative intrathoracic pressure
due to diaphragm contraction. Abnormalities of neuromuscular control function
in pharyngeal dilator muscles contribute to airway collapse. Defects in
7
ventilation control in the brain result in failure or delay of the pharyngeal dilator
muscle reflex, when the patient has periods of hypopneic apnea. 3,13,14,15
The upper airway collapses when the negative pharyngeal pressure during
inspiration exceeds the stabilizing forces of the upper airway dilator and
abductor muscles. Some patients with narrowing of the airways due to
micrognathia, retrognathia, adenotosyl hypertrophy, magroglossia or
acromegaly. Reduction in the size of the oropharynx causes upper airway
complaints to increase so that it tends to collapse if there is negative pressure.
3,13,14,15
Obesity also plays a role in airway narrowing. Excess body weight on the
chest wall and diaphragmatic dysfunction impair ventilation efforts during sleep
and fatty tissue in the neck and tongue narrows the airway diameter which
predisposes to premature closure when muscle tissue relaxes during sleep. 3,13,14,15
2.6 Classification
The OSA grade classification is based on the Apnea Hypopnea Index
(AHI) value set by The American Academy of Sleep Medicine. The AHI is an
index used to assess the severity of OSA based on the number of apneas and
hypopneas that occur per hour or can be formulated as the number of apneas
plus hypopnea divided by the total sleep time. AHI is grouped into 3 groups:1
1. Mild (AHI value 5-15).
It usually manifests as drowsiness during activities that require little attention,
such as watching TV or reading.
2. Moderate (AHI value 15-30).
Usually the manifestation that appears in the form of drowsiness during
activities that require attention, such as meetings or presentations.
3. Weight (AHI value > 30).
Usually the manifestation that appears is drowsiness during activities that
require more active attention, such as talking or driving
2.7 Diagnostic
The diagnosis of OSA is established by taking a history regarding sleep
patterns, physical examination, radiological examination and special
investigations. The combination of accurate data from a good history and physical
examination can lead to indications for conducting an OSA gold standard
examination.15,17

Table 2. Epworth sleepiness scale
There are five areas that need attention, namely: soft palate, lateral pharyngeal
wall, palatine tonsils, lingua tonsils / tongue base and epiglottis. The degree of
obstruction is divided into four categories. Simple palatal snoring, the sound of
snoring comes from vibrations of the soft palate, the walls of the velopharyngeal
sphincter and the upper oropharynx. Lateral wall collapse, the cause of obstruction
comes from the oropharynx and palatine tonsils. Tongue base / epiglottis,
velopharyngeal sphincter function is good, obstruction is at the base of the tongue
or due to hypertrophy of the lingual tonsil. The epiglottis may have contributed to
snoring. Multi segmental collapse, obstruction appears at several anatomical
levels. 18,19,20
Cephalometry and upper airway plain radiographs can be used to evaluate
craniofacial anatomic abnormalities. Computer tomography and magnetic
resonance imaging (MRI) can also facilitate understanding the relationship
between craniofacial anatomic abnormalities and respiratory disorders. 15,17
Polysomnography (PSG) is the gold standard for diagnosing OSA. PSG is a
diagnostic test to evaluate sleep disturbances that is carried out at night in a sleep
laboratory, used to assist in the selection of therapy and evaluation of the results
of therapy. There are three main signals that are monitored, namely first, signals
to confirm the state of the sleep stage such as electroencephalogram (EEG),
electrooculogram (EOG) and submental electromyogram (EMG). The second
signal is a signal related to heart rhythm, namely an electrocardiogram (ECG) and
a third signal related to respiration such as airflow (nasal thermistor technique),
oximetry, snoring, capnography, intercostal EMG, balloon esophageal
manometry, thoraco-abdominal effort, nasal pressure transducer, face mask
pneumotachography and PCO2.1,2,15 .
Levels characteristics of OSA at the time of PSG are repeated reductions in
oxygen saturation, partial or complete obstruction of the upper airway
accompanied by 50% decrease in respiratory amplitude, increased respiratory
effort resulting in changes in the stage of sleep becoming shallower and oxygen
desaturation occurring. 1,2,17
Examination with a portable monitor (PM) can be done outside the
laboratory as an alternative to PSG examination in patients suspected of having
12
minimal arousal index, few side effects, good patient acceptance and
comfort after 6 months of use.1,2,15,17
The use of CPAP is the non-surgical treatment of OSA that is considered
the most effective for reducing symptoms of snoring, apnea-hypopnea
and daytime hypersomnolence. Weaknesses of CPAP are discomfort
during use, claustrophobia, headaches, rhinitis, facial and nasal irritation
and aerophagia.17,19
2. The goal of surgical therapy in OSA is to improve the volume and shape of the
upper airway. Indications must be clear and well prepared. Indications for OSA
surgery are AHI 20, O2 saturation <90%, esophageal pressure below -10
cmH2O, the presence of cardiovascular disorders (such as arrhythmias and
hypertension), neuropsychiatric symptoms, failure with nonsurgical therapy and
the presence of anatomic abnormalities that cause airway obstruction. No one
technique is really good for OSA.1,2
Uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (UPPP) is one of the surgical techniques by
performing excision on the inferior margin of the soft palate including
the uvula and tonsils. According to meta-analysis studies that have been
carried out, it is stated that UPPP can significantly reduce AHI and
increase oxygen saturation. UPPP is less effective in elderly patients and
high BMI.1,2,19
Genioglossus advancement can correct retroglossal obstruction. This
technique is performed in patients with AHI >30 caused by obstruction at
the base of the tongue. The success of this technique in improving AHI
and oxygen saturation is 66-85%. 1,2,18
The maxilla-mandibular osteotomy technique can be performed in
patients who have not progressed post-UPPP and genioglossus
advancement after being evaluated for six months with PSG. This
technique has a 97-100% success rate in reducing AHI and increasing
blood oxygen saturation. 1,2,18
Laser-assisted uvuloplasty (LAUP) is a technique similar to UPPP, but
uses a laser (CO2, argon). This technique can be performed under local
anesthesia in 1-3 outpatient sessions. LAUP is not recommended in
